1

<p>Hello fellow ccer's, just wondering what my chances are at those competitive schools. I am a senior in a competitive public high school in New York. I will chance back if anyone want me to :)
My standardized testing scores are:
SAT I: 2390 superscore
SAT II: 770 in math 2, 790 in US history, 800 in Spanish
AP scores: AP Chemistry 5, AP Spanish Language 5, AP Calculus AB 5, AP US History 4</p>

<p>My ec's are:
Varsity Swimming team (9,10,11,12), Science Club President (many science league and science olympiad awards on the regional, state levels), Language Honor Society Vice President, some petty regional debate awards, DNA sequencing in my molecular biology course, in which I determined the genes of brine shrimps and duckweeds. Random volunteering at hospitals. lol!!! </p>

<p>Awards are: Swimming MIP, State Science Olympiad Awards, Columbia University Science Honors Program</p>

<p>I'm also an Asian Female looking to major in molecular biology. </p>

<p>Recs will be great (I hope), dont know about my guidance counselor (big school)</p>

<p>bump…are these schools matches or reaches?</p>

4

<p>They’re all mid to high reaches I would say.</p>

5

<p>I really don’t think anyone is really a “match” at these schools. My guess is that you’d get into at least 3 of the 5.</p>

6

<p>oh, my parents make 60K combined. would that help much?</p>

7

<p>…it’ll help you if you get in!</p>

<p>What do people mean by “mid to high reaches?” Does that mean I have a good chance? I think my extracurriculars are pretty well-rounded, what do you guys think?</p>
